[quote=APAULT,38331]Most backpackers carry too much, tho many simply fly and taxi so it is not a great issue for them. I have backpacked over several decades. I keep my backpack weight very low. 15kg is too much. I wash clothes most nights though they dont alwasy dry overnight. But with clothes bring the minimum possible and buy extra in China as they are so cheap. carry clothes for their usefulness not for colour co-ordination etc. Carry shampoo, not shampoo and soap and bodywash. No hair driers, cut yr hair shorter instead. I only carry one medium size towel. Most hotels supply a towel tho some are miniscule or very thin. Don't forget the beer bottle cap opener, the essential item :) I have just one pair of shoes: good joggers/trainers. For a while I had one good pair of sandals but I prefer joggers for rougher terrain. NOT both! [/quote]
